    Could Fluorescein Staining in Low-Grade Glial Tumors Guide for Peroperative Differentiation of Pathological Types?
    (Turkish Neurosurgical Soc, 2023) Ozden, Mahmut; Mammadkhanli, Orkhan; Zaimoglu, Murat; Bayatli, Eyup; Bozkurt, Melih
    AIM: To define whether characteristics of fluorescein staining help to distinguish low grade gliomas intraoperatively.MATERIAL and METHODS: We studied 46 patients with supratentorial newly diagnosed noncontrast-enhancing LGGs removed by fluorescence guidance under the YELLOW 560 nm filter. Patients who were treated between July 2019 and 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical data were collected from patient records. Patients' intraoperative video recordings, pathological examination, and preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were analyzed and compared for each patient after the operation. Histopathologically, patients were divided into WHO Grade 2 oligodendrogliomas, diffuse astrocytomas (IDH mutant, 1p19q negative tumors), and pre-glioblastomas (IDH wild type, 1p19q negative tumors). Resection margins were checked using controls contrast -enhanced cranial MRI at the postoperative 24 and72 hours.RESULTS: Our observations indicate that fluorescein primarily stains diffuse astrocytomas (IDH mutant, 1p19q negative tumors) and pre-glioblastomas (IDH wild type, 1p19q negative tumors) rather than WHO Grade 2 oligodendrogliomas.CONCLUSION: Fluorescein staining might be an option to determine tumor borders in WHO Grade 2 glial tumors, particularly for those with a higher malignancy potential.

    Development of a comprehensive and clinically applicable novel projection classification system for anterior communicating artery aneurysms
    (Springer, 2024) Orakdogen, Metin; Mammadkhanli, Orkhan; Chousein, Baris; Simsek, Osman
    Various surgical and anatomical classifications have been proposed to date related to ACoA aneurysm projection. Nonetheless, a universally accepted classification system is yet to be established. This study is aimed at establishing a standardized classification system for ACoA aneurysms with utilization 3D technology and defining reference lines for their projections. The goal is to create a simple, understandable, surgically beneficial, and reliable classification system based on neurovascular structures in the region, including safe and hazardous zones. The radiologic data of 96 patients with ACoA aneurysm who were treated in our university hospital between 2012 and 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, and a planned classification scale was developed with the data obtained. The classification aimed to create 9 main projection groups in the sagittal plane: superior, inferior, anterior, and posterior in linear orientation, and anterosuperior, posterosuperior, anteroinferior, posteroinferior, and complex in quadrant orientation. The coronal and axial planes included medial, lateral, and midline classifications, resulting in a 3-dimensional classification system with 25 projections. Among the 96 patients, 32 had linear and 64 had quadrant projections. In the sagittal plane, the linear projection breakdown was as follows: superior (28%), inferior (6.25%), anterior (53%), and posterior (12.5%). For the quadrant projection, the distribution was as follows: anterosuperior (53%), posterosuperior (12.5%), anteroinferior (21.87%), posteroinferior (3.12%), and complex (9.37%). Overall, 35.4% aneurysms were anterosuperior, 17.7% anterior, 14.58% anteroinferior, 9.37% superior, 8.3% posterosuperior, 6.25% complex, 4.16% posterior, 2.08% posteroinferior, and 2.08% inferior projection. Our study proposes a projection classification that utilizes 3D technology for safe surgery based on neurovascular structures in the region and thus better reveals safe and hazardous zones, including three plans, three dimensions, and two orientations. The use of this classification system offers valuable guidance for daily practice in the treatment of ACoA aneurysms.

    Evaluation of the Utility of Indocyanine Green Video Angiography in Cerebral Arteriovenous Malformation Surgery
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2023) Erdogan, Koral; Mammadkhanli, Orkhan; Abbasoglu, Bilal; Bayatli, Eyup; Ozden, Mahmut; Bozkurt, Melih
    OBJECTIVE: To assess the utility of intraoperative indocyanine green video angiography (ICG-VA) during microsurgical resection of arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). METHODS: Data of the 24 patients, who were surgically treated for AVM using intraoperative ICG-VA, were reviewed retrospectively. Postoperative digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was performed in all patients before they regained consciousness and became fully awake, and the results were compared with those obtained with intraoperative ICG-VA. A scheduled DSA was performed in all patients in the third, sixth, and 12th postoperative months as well. RESULTS: Authors retrospectively analyzed the records of intraoperative ICG-VA application of all 24 patients. Though the exposures were limited and the image qualities were poor at higher magnification on the surgical micro-scope within deep surgical fields, the AVM niduses, feeding arteries, draining veins, and their relations to normal vasculature were observed precisely with ICG-VA in all the procedures. Furthermore, the visualization was not qualified enough to identify these pathological vascular structures accurately before evacuating and irrigating the layer of blood clots that obscure the view in patients who presented with hemorrhage. In a patient in our series, a residual nidus in the tail of the caudate nucleus was detected with immediate postoperative DSA which was not revealed by terminal assessment with final intraoperative ICG-VA. CONCLUSIONS: Intraoperative ICG-VA is particularly effective in the identification of the feeder, nidus, and drainer and in the assessment of the flow dynamics of the n idus in cerebral AVM surgery. It may be a quick and safe technique for intraoperative imaging of the angioarchi-tecture of superficial AVMs, but it may be less helpful for deep-seated lesions. Furthermore, this method alone may not be useful in the identification of residual disease or improvement of the clinical outcomes. DSA has remained the gold standard for confirming AVM obliteration. Despite the technical limitations associated with ICG-VA, a com-bination of intraoperative ICG-VA and immediate post-operative DSA may advance the safety and efficacy of AVM surgery.

    Insular cortex involvement in migraine patients with chronic pain: A volumetric radiological and clinical study
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Mammadkhanli, Orkhan; Kehaya, Sezgin; Solak, Serdar; Yagmurlu, Kaan
    Background: This study aimed to assess abnormalities in the insular cortex of individuals suffering from migraines and examine their associations with pain duration, medication usage, and clinical symptoms. Methods: We analyzed radiological data from 38 migraine patients who had undergone 3D iso T1-weighted brain MRI at our university hospital between 2019 and 2023. Structured questionnaires were used to collect information on participants' age, migraine type, disease duration, clinical symptoms, and medication use. Volumetric analysis was performed on the insular regions using Volbrain and 3DSlicer. The results were statistically analyzed. Results: Comparing groups with chronic pain to normal groups revealed significant differences in several insular regions, including the posterior insula (p = 0.034), parietal operculum (p = 0.04), and the entire insular cortex (p = 0.023). Further group comparisons (Group 1, 2, and 3) showed significant differences in specific insular regions. For instance, the anterior insula (p = 0.032) was associated with taste changes, the posterior insula (p = 0.010) with smell-related changes, and the central operculum (p = 0.046) with sensations of nausea. Additionally, significant changes were observed in the parietal operculum concerning nausea, photophobia, phonophobia, and changes in smell. Conclusion: To the best of our knowledge, there have been no studies investigating the relationship between clinical manifestations and volumetric correlation. This study provides insights into abnormalities in the insular cortex among migraine patients and their potential relevance to pain duration, severity, and migraine type. The results suggest that understanding alterations in insular regions possibly linked to pain could contribute to the development of innovative approaches to managing chronic pain.

    Optimizing surgical approaches for anterior communicating artery aneurysms: Development and internal validation of a novel surgical scoring system
    (Springer, 2024) Orakdogen, Metin; Mammadkhanli, Orkhan; Simsek, Osman
    BackgroundThe objective was to provide comprehensive preoperative information on both the aneurysm orientation and the side and method of surgical approach for optimal preoperative information and safe clipping using 3D imaging modalities. This was achieved by making an objective risk assessment on the surgical side/method and evaluating its effectiveness with internal validation.Materials and methodsRadiologic data of 61 ACoA aneurysm patients between 2012 and 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. A scoring system based on five criteria; ACoA aneurysm dome orientation, A1 symmetry/control, perforating artery control, A2 trace orientation, and A2 fork symmetry was developed. The system is designed to align with the most common surgical approaches in ACoA aneurysm surgery. The patients were categorized into three groups based on the scoring results to determine the most appropriate surgical method. Group I was recommended, Group II was less recommended, and Group III was least recommended. Internal validation was performed to assess the system's effectiveness. Outcomes and complication rates were statistically evaluated.ResultsWhen the scoring system was utilized, the mean score difference between the first group and the other groups was 2.71 and 4.62, respectively. There was a homogeneous distribution among the groups in terms of age, sex, WFNS, and Fisher scores. Complication occurred in three patients in Group I and nine patients each in Group II and Group III. The further the deviation from the first option, the higher the complication rate (p = 0.016), and a significant cause-effect relationship was identified (p = 0.021). The ROC curve established a cut-off value of 12.5 points for complications and outcomes.ConclusionOur study introduces a new scoring system for ACoA aneurysms, enhancing the use of 3D CTA in daily practice and providing internal validation for the proposed approach. By evaluating objective criteria, this scoring system helps predict surgical risks, prevent complications, and supports personalized evaluation and selection of the surgical approach based on objective criteria.
